Win or be Drowned Lyrics by Running Wild

Pile of Skulls

0

Like soldiers of fortune, we are cruising the sea
Against all the odds, with the urge to be free
We're longing for freedom, like an animal that's chained
We are thirsty for justice, like a flower that's drained
That's drained, yeah

Win or be drowned, so fight hard
Win or be drowned, like a wild shark
Win or be drowned, so stand tight
Win or be drowned, freedom's fight, yeah

Slave-drivers hunted, our cannons will speak
A frightening terror for the profit they seek
Like sea-cruising phantoms, on the breath of the sea
We are foiling their plans, hooked, they can't flee
Can't flee, yeah

Win or be drowned, so fight hard
Win or be drowned, like a wild shark
Win or be drowned, so stand tight
Win or be drowned, freedom's fight, yeah
Fight

We're still full of pride, we are fighting for life
For independence we're struggling, we've got to survive
We are longing for freedom, like an animal that's chained
We are thirsty for justice, like a flower that's drained
That's drained, yeah

So win or be drowned, so fight hard
Win or be drowned, like a wild shark
Win or be drowned, so stand tight
Win or be drowned, freedom's fight
Win or be drowned, so fight hard
Win or be drowned, like a wild shark
Win or be drowned, so stand tight
Win or be drowned, freedom's fight

Fight
